Frederick Douglass hoped in the future there would be
equality for all races. To achieve this dream, Douglass believed that education
was the key to attaining equality and bright future for Black Americans. Though Andrew Jackson was a slave holder, he
too had hopes for the future of the United States. This was through expansion. Jackson believed that it was America’s
destiny to rule over the entire continent.
This was later carried out by President Polk who promoted westward
expansion.
The Gelug sect of Buddhism is the newest sect of this religion/philosophy. It is the one that actually has established the Dalai Lama, which is the most important figure in this sect. The Dalai Lama is viewed as the incarnation Avalokitisvara, a Bodhisttava of Compassion. Also, the Dalai Lama is considered as the spiritual leader of the Gelug Buddhism and he is the highest religious authority, which over time even became a political authority. This sect of Buddhism has become dominant in Tibet and Mongolia.
Answer:
The main reason for the destruction of Roman economy lies in the fact that during 3rd Century there were constant wars in the country with only one goal, and that was the fight for power. Between 235 and 284 there were as many as 26 claimants to the throne.
Explanation:
This period of constant wars destroyed not only economy, but also society and institutions. At the end, Diocletian who ruled after this period tried to fix some problems through reforms, but of course it was hard to repair everything that was destroyed.
Arguments in favour of a minimum wage mostly hang on the idea that firms have a responsibility to ensure that their workers earn enough to live on. If a firm can’t pay its workers enough to live on, then it isn’t a viable business, because it is dependent on wage subsidies. Of course “enough to live on” depends where you live: the cost of living in London is considerably higher than it is in, say, Newcastle, so a minimum wage that would give a reasonable standard of living in Newcastle is starvation level in London. The campaign for a voluntary Living Wage tries to persuade firms to pay above the current UK minimum wage, which is perceived as being below the real cost of living.
Answer: The answer is complex and not straightforward.
Explanation:
The article relates to Churchill and Roosevelt, so is probably dated from World War 2.
Given this and the reference to the use of force by aggressive nations it is reasonable to assume that this refers to the Axis nations and their allies, primarily Germany, Japan and Italy.
What is being referred to is reflected in the policies applied to Germany and Japan at the end of World War 2. (Italy had already switched sides and deposed Mussolini).
In the post war agreements drawn up, Germany and Japan were largely demilitarised with strict control over their armed forces. In the case of West Germany their limited armed forces existed only within the context of NATO to prevent any aggressive use as was evidenced at the beginning of World War 2.
In both instances these countries were not allowed to develop or possess nuclear weapons.
Until such time as there is a global disarmament treaty, as referred to in the article, then countries which are deemed "aggressive", the losers in a conflict, by others, the winners, have arms controls imposed.
Of course this does not and has not stopped the proliferation of weapons, and conflicts throughout the world since 1945, including the aggressive policies of countries such as the UK and the USA.
